OPERA fans are in for a treat on June 12 when one of the most popular operas of all is screened at the Artrix.
The Royal Opera House is screening La Boheme in one of their best loved stagings, and now being seen for the very last time in this format.
John Copley’s keen stagecraft and loving attention to period and dramatic detail make this a masterpiece of realism, while Julia Trevelyan Oman’s designs evoke the atmosphere of 19th-century Paris.
Several of today’s greatest opera stars return to the stage in this production, notably Anna Netrebko as Mimì, and Joseph Calleja as her lover, Rodolfo.
Israeli conductor Dan Ettinger conducts one of Puccini’s most emotional and melodious scores, in a revival that promises to go down in Royal Opera history.
Tickets cost £15 (£12 discount) and are available from the box office on 01527 577330 or online at artrix.co.uk.
